Stephen Hawking interviewed on "Yair Lapid"

Prof. Stephen Hawking is interviewed on Israeli TV show hosted by Yair Lapid. He answers (sort of) the question: does he believe in God?

The basic assumption of science is scientific determinsim. The laws of science determine the evolution of the universe, given its state at one time. These laws may, or may not have been decreed by God, but he cannot intervene to break the laws or they would not be laws. That leaves God with the freedom to choose the initial state of the universe, but ?as in here? it seems there may be laws, so God would have no freedom at all.
So he belives in God, but believes he has doing nothing in creation of everything?
